I forgot to list the converter. I bought a 3c converter. This will be more of a "street car" then dedicated strip car. I will never daily drive it but I want it to have very mild street manners. My wife will occasionally drive it in town so want it to be mild. Plus ill be on 20" drag radials.

There's not a major difference between the 3C or 5C and the 4C and 3C are almost identical. You did good.

Good deal. Lots of wrench time ahead. Now to find a buddy with a lift I can rent or borrow. I will pay labor for install before I work off jack stands. That mess was for when I was a teenager and broke.

Following along, I am in the exact same position as you. Still hunting the car down, but will likely have the exact same mod list with the exception of nitrous.

Yea I just pulled the trigger on everything except a driveshaft so far. The weather has been horrible here so I haven't got much past installing all my suspension. Plus I'm still waiting on the converter and Sctx4 with the tunes to be delivered before doing to much.

I'm interested to see what kind of numbers you put up with the boss im.
It won't be a fair comparison of stock manifold vs boss. I'm doing converter, boss, airaid cai, long tubes, off road x, tune, injectors, bap, e85, and nitrous all at once. I may toss it on the dyno on e85 NA and e85 with nitrous. But the only time I'll run the 91 tune is here the next few weeks data logging it before I change to e85. Lund said to get that tune dialed in first and foremost and then move on.

weather has been nasty here in OKC too, just working through the sale of my STi and then it will be on.

I'll start with a tune, axel back, wheels, and suspension.

Converter will follow.

Spent all day yesterday in okc. My buddy picked up a built c6 vette and I gave him a ride down to get it. I'm in wichita. There's a big scene down there in okc man. I stopped off in perry and met up with another guy who has 2.3 vmp on his 2012. Took it for a spin and it was nasty. Well have to get together when I come down and cruise it's only a 2hr drive. I'll be going to the street car take over for sure. But we'll be down before that as well. I'm hoping within 2 weeks to have mine done and atleast the data logging for e85 started.
